Greenhouse vs. Indeed.com vs. Wizehire

Well suited for Big organizations where recruitment is a daily task. Understanding of Greenhouse workings is simple and it is not difficult to train people who use it for first time. Greenhouse is less appropriate if you are looking for sharing offer letters or doing employee onboarding. Did not had a great experience in doing that

Incentivized

Well suited for searching the database for qualified resources, not well suited for those posting jobs. That is especially true if the job posted has a broader appeal, or applies to many job seekers, since it will attract hundreds that you will not have time to review. We have found that 1 in 20 are even qualified and have the basic requirements for what we post

Wizehire is an amazing applicant tracking system for organization and follow-up. I appreciate being able to add prerequisite questions for easy overviews of qualifications. The personality assessment is a great touch to have upfront in the application process. I love the Kanban view and customizations to track candidates in a way that makes sense for our organization.

Incentivized

• Customization of interview plans, questions, interviewer roles for multiple positions
• Manages efficient and timely candidate, hiring manager, and interviewer communication
• Integrates with other tools needed in the hiring process such as sourcing tools and onboarding systems
• Provides analytics and reporting to allow for data insights and process improvements
• Provides an Onboarding feature that makes the hiring cycle seamless from first interview to hire date

Incentivized

• The best free job advertising platform out there that is easy to use and integrates with our ATS Greenhouse
• ATS (Greenhouse) automatically posts every job to Indeed and requires zero effort
• Formatting of the the jobs from my ATS look good when "pulled" over to Indeed
• Able to integrate questions with rules that allow you to shortlist candidates in a more timely fashion
• Sponsoring portal has change a couple times. I do not love the new format as of 5/2021 but it is not bad.
• They allow you to use a credit card for sponsoring which linkedin will not
• Sponsoring criteria is good and has many options

Incentivized

• Organization
• Personality profile
• Syndication

• Greenhouse Security is simple, but not that granular. For example, everytime new recruiter joins, we have to give them access manually one by one. There is no one click or an easy way to auto assign security unlike other systems that we use such as Workday.
• Greenhouse reporting is very lacking. Even though we are on the highest tier, we cannot extract data through this delivered feature. For example, scorecard custom questions. We have to do this through SQL.
• Greenhouse Audit Log is also lacking. It is not useful at all. We cannot even see what job info changed and who changed it even though we are on the highest tier now.

Incentivized

• Indeed.com tends to have a lot of fake listings or listings which overstate a role and that drives some users away from using the service.
• Indeed.com's aesthetics are a bit dated so although the web sites functions are mature they also are a bit bland....if that matters to someone.
• They seem to try and push the sponsor (cost to you) job lists a bit strong.

Incentivized

• Candidates can apply for the same role more than once, and I'd like that not to be allowed
• The DISC is not as accurate as others, like Ableson.
• Candidates can apply without a resume and that's frustrating

Incentivized

we are gaining more by in from our hiring managers and candidates seem to like the ease of getting us interview times etc

Greenhouse's user-friendly interface, efficient workflows, and integration capabilities with other HR tools make it a powerful tool for our company, helping us streamline our hiring and onboarding processes. With its customizable workflow and intuitive design, Greenhouse allows us to create a hiring process that suits their specific needs and requirements, without the need for extensive coding or technical expertise. Moreover, Greenhouse's integration capabilities with other HR tools enable us to centralise our hiring and onboarding data, making it easier to access and analyse applicant information, and reducing the risk of data loss or errors.

Indeed does its job best in job postings, Sourcing resumes, and internal communication where our personal details can't be enclosed. Various filters help us source the particular resume.

I have never needed to call Greenhouse for support. I am not the primary account holder, nor do I use Greenhouse enough to merit calling support. I delegate that responsibility to the Recruiting team. They have never mentioned any experience with Greenhouse technical support, either bad or good. I would assume that they would tell me if the support was poor.

I haven't had to use Customer Service much for Indeed.com but the few times I've had encounters they have been very nice and helpful. They ensure you are getting the most out of your money with the resources Indeed has to offer. You can speak to customer service over the phone or on a quick messenger setting on the website depending on what your style is or how easy you feel your question is.

Incentivized

I think we could have used more delivered functionality and less customized which now results in more maintenance

Incentivized

Tools appears very light to use. It does not take forever to load. the interface is very simple but capable, unlike many ATS's. The tools is Simple yet loaded with very useful functionalities that save a lot of time and expedites the processes. For different stakeholders, the tools works accordingly.

We used and are still currently using other job boards. Some are free of charge, some are paid services. We do not want to stop using Indeed.com since it provides up with ability to post job postings for free. This is really appreciated. We do not want to disclose names of other services.

Better by far.

Incentivized

• Streamlined the hiring process and new hire time to value
• Increased satisfaction for hiring managers and sales account managers
• Allowed us to gain access to a bigger and more targeted talent pool
• Saved us time and helped us avoid things falling by the wayside by keeping things in one place and sending automated alerts

Incentivized

• Higher turnover in general for the positions we have hired for from Indeed which in some instances can hinder productivity. It is important to know that when using Indeed, you are getting volume/quantity and not necessarily top-performing employees.
• It seems like the employees found on Indeed are constantly job hunting even when currently employed.
• For our large-scale hiring, Indeed, all in all has had a positive impact as we are always able to fill the positions due to the large pool of resumes always on hand.

Incentivized

• Reduced time in hiring process
• Reduced time in screening process
• Ability to message candidates directly
